I`m infatuated with a man, is it permissible for me to make supplication that he falls in love with me and becomes my husband?

Answered as per Shafi'i Fiqh by Darul Iftaa Jordan
I`m infatuated with a man, is it permissible for me to make supplication that he falls in love with me and becomes my husband?

Answer:
Islam has honored women by being proposed to by men, and not the other way around, so it is inappropriate for a woman to propose to a man since one who hastens in asking for a thing prematurely shall be punished by deprivation. In fact, such a phenomenon is the result of unlawful mixing between the two sexes.
